ieee1284_free_ports(3)
safely deallocate a port list
SYNOPSIS
#include <ieee1284.h>
-
void ieee1284_free_ports(struct parport_list *list);
DESCRIPTION
When the port list will no longer be used, the program should call
ieee1284_free_ports
giving it a pointer to the
parport_list
structure that holds the list of ports returned by
ieee1284_find_ports(3). The ports are reference counted with the
ieee1284_open
and
ieee1284_close
functions, and so the port list may be freed even if it contains pointers to ports that are still open.
